5years as a Dental Undergraduate: What I've gained besides KNOWLEDGE

FRIENDSHIP

The most important lesson i've learnt.

Friends are easy to make, but true friends are hard to come by.

Without my friends, there's no way i could've made it thus far.

I owe A LOT to all of them! No man is an island in dentistry.

Sincerity & trust are the keywords. Age & skin colour are no barriers.

You reap what you sow.

INTEREST

Tak kenal maka tak cinta.

But interest can kill at times too!

"Do not restrict yourself, broaden your options!" <--- Note to self.

Still waiting for inspiration. I've yet to set foot in the real world. ;)

SELF-CONFIDENCE

'Though not as "thick-skinned" as salespersons (no offence!) :P

PRIORITISING SKILLS

There's just soOo much to complete within a short period of time.

I've learnt to make major decisions (wisely) within a fraction of a second (have to!) :-|

AGE

Dentistry makes people age faster; physically, mentally, emotionally. Period.

and... to realise that there are just soOo many things besides dentistry that i've to learnt, and that this world is not only about dentistry, and dentistry is not the only interesting in this whole wide world.

So... to practise or not to practise? Okay i'll ponder on that after i've completed my FYDO-ship :P
